“…The low degree of interdependence and the absence of a primary supplier and customer types likewise suggest that SMEs in this group are operating in highly heterogeneous business environments. Thus, SMEs may not be willing to bind themselves to a particular IOIS due to a fear of failing to achieve a critical mass of business partners (Teo et al 2006), or adopting the wrong technology (Venkatesh and Bala 2012).…”

“…Studies on IOIS adoption largely acknowledge its influence (Kauffman and Mohtadi 2004;. Similarly, organizational structure is likewise reported to affect organizational decisions in this context, as changes to organizational structure have to be made when adopting IOIS (Teo et al 2006). Organizational structure thereby reflects the resource and routine rigidity of a firm and can ultimately prevent it from adopting an IOIS (Bala and Venkatesh 2007).…”

“…Furthermore, regulatory requirements can vary considerably between different regulatory environments (e.g. different countries), resulting in different decisions being made by otherwise similar organizations towards the adoption of IOIS (Teo et al 2006). Therefore, the regulatory environment and particularly the regulatory scope of organizations are regarded as key characteristics in this context .…”

“…SMEs situated in such configurations are therefore likely to adopt a "wait and see" approach to the adoption of IOIS (Edelmann and Sintonen 2006). This behaviour is based on the high organizational uncertainty resulting from SMEs' presence in multiple business communities, and of fears of failing to achieve a critical mass of business partners (Teo et al 2006), or of adopting the wrong technology (Venkatesh and Bala 2012). The provision of circumstantial information and expertise is, however, not likely to reduce this uncertainty, as in this case the uncertainty largely stems from the multitude of divergent information sources available to SMEs in these configurations rather than from the absence of relevant information itself (Markus and Loebbecke 2013).…”

Inter-organizational information systems (IOIS) play a critical role in today's organizations and their relationships with business partners. While large organizations already began utilizing IOIS at the outset, small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) have subsequently been reluctant to adopt and use IOIS. As such systems are subject to high network effects, a firm thus has to reach out especially to its SME partners to achieve a critical mass of adopters among them. Prior research agrees that the provision of support in terms of circumstantial information and expertise can influence organizational adoption decisions. However, research in this direction has remained inconclusive. This study conducts a controlled field experiment at the organizational level to investigate the provision of support as a non-coercive persuasion strategy to foster the adoption of IOIS among 203 SME business partners of a large German organization. A cluster analysis is further conducted to identify distinct clusters of IOIS adopters showing significantly different adoption rates that result from informing them as a strategy. The results first offer evidence for the importance of informing SMEs as a viable strategy to foster IOIS adoption among them. Furthermore, the results provide empirical evidence for the presence of particular arrangements of characteristics describing the strategy and structure of analysed organizations that ultimately interact with the effect of the provision of support as a persuasion strategy.

“…HRIS can only be adopted if the employees have good IT expertise because it is the large factor in the adoption of HRIS (Rand et al, 2013). Teo et al (2006) pinpointed that the lack of IT expertise as an inhibitors of B2B e-commerce adoption in North America and Canada. Based on his finding he confirmed that IT expertise has positive significant effect on the adopting e-commerce.…”

This paper has focused on the importance of human resource information system (HRIS) implementation in the organization to achieve the competitive advantage. This study proposed a research framework which is derived from diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory and technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE) framework. For the purpose of this study various determinants that could influence the adoption of HRIS such as IT infrastructure, IT expertise, financial readiness, HR practices and competitive pressure have been evaluated. A proposed methodology is established in the paper which could assist futuristic researchers who are willing to pursue their study in similar context. Previous studies had focused the process of HRIS adoption at decision stage (stage 3 of adoption process in DOI) as dichotomous scale though none of the studies have developed the scale for HRIS implementation (stage 4 of adoption process in DOI). Along with identification of literature gap, this study has also exhibited theoretical and practical implications with regard to HRIS adoption.

Electronic government systems are broadly recognized in the modern era as useful and valid means of delivering e-services. As the importance and prevalence of egovernment services have grown, increasing attention has necessarily been placed on the cybersecurity of electronic programs. Multiple drivers have been identified as contributing to the enhancement of cybersecurity, however, there is limited empirical research confirming these drivers. The main aims of this study are to investigate the drivers of e-government cybersecurity enhancement and determine the impact of cybersecurity on the effectiveness of e-government systems. The study constructs were extracted from the human-organization-technology (HOT) theory and institutional theory. A total of 500 questionnaires were randomly distributed to information technology department staff members and e-government officials in Jordanian ministries. The resulting data were analyzed using a structural equation modeling approach. The findings indicate that technical measures, the role of senior management, coercive pressures, and memetic pressures are important drivers for enhanced cybersecurity levels in governmental organizations. The results also show that enhancing cybersecurity levels in organizations promote the effectiveness of e-government services. These conclusions offer researchers and practitioners insight as to the drivers of an enhanced cybersecurity and the importance of cybersecurity in e-government as a whole.
